Hello all! It's been a busy day in our household as we completed an 11 hour shopping marathon
All in all, I didn't spend too much considering everything I bought, but I spend more than I anticipated at the outset of the day...
Started bright and early at Circuit City at 5 am and then progressed to Target, the Disney Store (X2), the Character Warehouse, Carter's (I always get into trouble there!) and Barnes and Noble amongst other stores. Got some great deals/gifts and a few things for myself/the house.
Anyway, I am down to one present for my best friend and a few things for the DH and a gift card for my parents to finish up my necessary shopping. And then, my office is adopting a family and Ty's school is setting up an Angel Tree so we will pick up some things for charity. Also, I saw that KBF is doing Toys for Tots for free admission during the weekends in Dec. Since we have never made it over there, I am considering giving up our first partial day at DL on Dec. 21st to check out KBF and donate to a good cause at the same time. Has anyone ever gone there during the winter? Is it worth our time? They are only open until 7 pm, so I told Dave that we would still be hitting DL for fireworks and snow that night since we have the APs and can do that!
Along with Cheryl I couldn't get enough Thanksgiving yesterday as we went to a friend's house along with about 12 other people. We were in charge of cranberries and mac'n'cheese, but I found myself longing all the traditional foods my family makes too. So, we bought a turkey breast and put everything together yesterday so that the casseroles just had to bake today and voila Thanksgiving dinner redux tonight!
Hope that everyone else had a great day! I still can't wrap my head around the fact that it is Friday and I still get two more whole days before I have to be back at work!
